View clinical trials related to Rotator Cuff Tears.
Filter by:Purpose: To assess whether the use of platelet-rich plasma used as an adjuvant to arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs modify the rate of re-tears (measured by MRI) compared to a control group that only underwent the isolated arthroscopic repair. Hypothesis: Platelet rich plasma used as an adjuvant to arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs decrease the rate of retears.
Various stretches are used to lengthen the posterior shoulder capsule. No study has reported the comparison of the pragmatic posterior capsular stretch and cross body stertch
The primary aim of this report is to determine whether there is a difference between Epinephrine and Tranexamic acid in providing visual clarity during arthroscopic rotator cuff tear repair.
The purpose of this study is to determine if intravenous TXA is a safe alternative to epinephrine in improving arthroscopic shoulder visualization. Primary Objectives 1. Determine that patients given intravenous tranexamic acid improves surgeon-rated visualization compared to placebo. 2. Determine that intravenous tranexamic acid is a safe alternative to epinephrine mixed irrigation fluid to improve arthroscopic shoulder visualization
Rehabilitation following rotator cuff surgery is characterized with high levels of pain, limited range of motion, and decreased quality of life. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the B-Cure laser photobiomodulation home-use device in addition to standard care, for the reduction of pain, increase in functionality, and improvement of life quality during rehabilitation following rotator cuff arthroscopic surgery.
The investigators evaluated the correlation between cutting-through at the greater tuberosity (GT) just medial to the lateral knotless anchor in arthroscopic suture-bridge rotator cuff repair and the bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, hip and GT of the proximal humerus and to evaluate factors and clinical outcomes related to cutting-through at the GT.
There are very few studies in the literature about conservative treatment of massive rotator cuff (RC) tears. Whether the treatment of massive RC tears is conservative or surgical is decided according to the age, activity level, expectation and additional pathologies of the patient. The aim of conservative treatment is to make the patient functionally independent and to reduce pain. In recent years, there are different opinions in the literature about the effectiveness of conservative treatment of massive RC tears. However, in recent biomechanical studies, it has been reported that the RC and the deltoid, which remain intact in massive RC tears, can function well together. The hypothesis of this study is that the deltoid-focused physiotherapy program, where strengthening exercises are performed with EMG biofeedback, will give more positive results in terms of range of motion (ROM), functional status, muscle strength, pain and patients satisfaction. aim of our study is to investigate the efficacy of electromyographic biofeedback (EMG-BF) device which was added to deltoid focused conservative treatment program in massive RC tears.
The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between the Patient- Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) and shoulder functions in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation program applied to patients with shoulder problems.
The present study addresses the issue about post-surgical recovery process, for patients arthroscopically treated for rotator-cuff tear. The aim of the research is to test the effectiveness of a new rehabilitation protocol that includes kinematic biofeedback with the motion analysis system ISEO.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a strength training protocol on the uninjured upper extremity either alone or with the addition of blood flow restriction (BFR) training on subjects who have undergone shoulder arthroscopy.
